At this time, the Xuanyuan brothers and Qianyu used sword energy to kill the beast monsters in the front row from a long distance in front of the big canal, so the defense was temporarily worry-free.

But a group of strange birds flew over from the eastern sky, which caused the warriors to shout loudly.

"The Sky-Covering Dragon Bird!"

Li Yang recognized the giant bird, and his tone became heavier, "It seems that Qianmo Ridge is really determined to capture our Diying Fortress this time!"

Xuanyuan Zhangqing also saw the Heaven-Covering Dragon Bird and shouted to the top of the city wall: "Senior Brother Li was injured by this guy!"

Xuanyuan Sword Emperor nodded and became attentive. If it was a one-on-one fight, the Southern Yunnan Sword God would never take the big bird seriously. However, the situation was chaotic right now, and he had family and too many Diying people to look after. It would be easy to neglect it if he was distracted.

But the Sky-Covering Dragon Bird just stared at Xuanyuan Changqing for a while, then led a group of strange birds to fly into the city.

Li Yang looked at the flock of birds flying overhead, his heart hanging in the air. He turned around and said to Xuanyuan Sword Emperor: "Senior, can you..."

Before he could finish his words, Xuanyuan Sword Emperor interrupted him and said, "No need to say more. I will go right away."

Li Yang nodded gratefully, there was no need to say anything more.

Xuanyuan Changqing saw that the Heaven-Crushing Dragon Bird did not come to seek revenge on him but flew into the city. He then realized that the Ten Thousand Demons had a deep plan, a clear division of labor, and would never fight to the bitter end. This was terrifying. He looked at the situation across the canal and shouted to Li Yang: "Brother Li, activate the mechanism!"

As the commander-in-chief, Li Yang had a general understanding of the situation below the city and trusted Xuanyuan Changqing's ability and vision. He made a prompt decision and ordered the clansmen on the city to activate the mechanism. Once the rope on the top of the city was pulled, it went straight to the side wall of the canal through the underground secret passage. The pre-installed secret box was pulled open, and a large amount of kerosene mixed into the canal.

At the same time, three hundred archers on the city wall fired rockets, and the canal instantly turned into a blazing wall of fire more than three meters high. The north wind was blowing hard, and the wind fanned the fire. The high-temperature flames were like a fire dragon, burning the monsters so hard that they had to retreat and avoid it.

Xuanyuan Changqing saw that the monster couldn't come over for the time being, looked at Qianyu and Xuanyuan Boyue, and said, "Return to the city!"

The three of them rode their swords back to the top of the city. Xuanyuan Changqing saw that all the clansmen in the city were carrying water to put out the fire, so he asked, "Brother Li, what happened in the city?"

Li Yang simply said, "Tonight's enemies are not just beast monsters, there are also several other monster lords and their subordinates. The difficulty and danger are far beyond our previous expectations."

Xuanyuan Changqing thought for a moment and said, "Brother Li, please command the warriors to defend the beast monsters below the city with the fire wall as a barrier, and leave the ones in the village to us!"

Li Yang nodded and said, "Yue'er has led people to ambush in the back camp. It will be fine for the time being. You guys go to help Senior Xuanyuan quickly, and be careful!"

Xuanyuan Changqing said no more and flew quickly into the city.

The southern foot of Yinghun Mountain.

Li Yue had led her tribesmen to ambush in the back village for more than three hours. The shouts and screams from outside the city kept reaching her ears. Li Yue's heart was like a monkey scratching, restless. She was originally straightforward and impulsive, and being able to hold her ground until now was already the limit.

"Wow..."

The loud sound of the strange bird's wings flapping reached Li Yue again. She could no longer hold back and said to a deputy general beside her: "You stay here and be alert to the monster's movements. I'll go ahead and take a look!"

"Miss, you must not do that!" The deputy general said worriedly, "The clan leader has repeatedly told us to defend the rear camp to the death. The clan leader has not summoned us at this time. If you leave your post without permission, if something goes wrong here, we will be sinners for all eternity!"

After hearing what he said, Li Yue suddenly stopped.

Although she had been reckless and fearless since childhood, she could not bear the accusation. As she was hesitating, she suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the Yinghun Mountain in the north.

Li Yue quickly squatted down and said in a low voice: "Pass the order down, all troops on alert!"

……

Xiruo slept soundly on Chen Qingzhou's back. If her stomach hadn't been growling, she would have slept a little longer.

"The lazy cat finally woke up!" Chen Qingzhou said with a smile, "He slept for a whole day!"

"Hmm..." Xiruo rubbed her sleepy eyes, "Where are we?"

Chen Qingzhou looked around and said, "I don't know, but I'm still in Nanman anyway."

After saying that, he took out two yellow fruits, one big and one small, from his arms and handed them behind him.

Xiruo's eyes lit up, she took the fruit, put it in front of her nose and smelled it, and instantly, a sweet smell came to her face, and her little face immediately lit up with joy, "How can there be fruit?"

Chen Qingzhou smiled and said, "I was lucky just now. I found a fruit tree that hadn't had all its fruits plucked out. Come and eat some! They're so sweet!"

Xiruo hummed, put half of the fruit into her mouth, and took it out again, "Big brother, have you... have you and Uncle Chopsticks eaten it?"

"Of course we ate it!" Chen Qingzhou said with a smile, "We found a big tree, so we must fill our stomachs! Come on and eat!"

Xiruo looked at the two small yellow fruits in her hand. The skin was a little broken. She suddenly became skeptical. "Really?"

Chen Qingzhou said, "Why would I lie to you? Didn't your stomach growl just now? Eat quickly!"

Xi Ruo still didn't believe it, so she asked Dao Wuya, "Uncle Chopsticks, big brother always likes to tease me, tell me, did you really eat it?"

Dao Wuya has subdued countless demons in the past ten years, but he seldom interacts with people. He always speaks his mind without beating around the bush. Now that he is forced to this point, Chen Qingzhou's sidelong eyes glare at him again. He can only pretend to pat his stomach and say, "Yes, look at my stomach, it's so full that it can't bear it anymore."

Chen Qingzhou's surprise was beyond words, and he secretly gave Dao Wuya a thumbs up in front of his chest.

Now Xiruo believed it. She was indeed hungry, so she took one of the smaller fruits to her mouth and took a bite.

Chen Qingzhou smiled and said, "That's good! Does it taste good..." Before he could finish his words, a fruit suddenly appeared in his mouth.

"Wu...Wu...I..." Chen Qingzhou took a bite instinctively, quickly took it out, and said angrily: "What are you doing? I said I ate it!"

Xi Ruo was frightened by his sudden roar and lay down behind him, not daring to speak.

Chen Qingzhou immediately realized that he was too harsh, and quickly said gently: "Silly child, you are just two small fruits and you are still pushing them back and forth. It's okay for big brother to not eat for a few days. Besides, I just ate."

Xi Ruo said timidly: "You...you didn't eat it."

"Ah?" Chen Qingzhou was a little surprised, "How did you know?"

Xi Ruo speculated, "If you really came across a big fruit tree, why did you only leave two small and broken fruits for me? Moreover, these fruits are sour and bitter, but you said they are sweet."

Chen Qingzhou cried out that it was a bad idea. He didn't expect this little girl to be so smart. "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Come on and eat. We're really not hungry."

Xi Ruo choked up a little, "I... I'm worried that you'll starve to death, then... then no one will take care of me."

Chen Qingzhou felt even more distressed after hearing this. He took the fruit and shook it in front of Xi Ruo, "Come, let's eat together!"

"Let's eat together!"

Xi Ruo burst into laughter, said "hmm", and ate the fruit with big mouthfuls, but she didn't feel the sourness or bitterness at all.

Dao Wuya rolled his eyes, feeling that he was being ignored, but he couldn't say anything pretentious, so he glanced ahead.

"Eat quickly, you two. Something's going on."
